I'm 6"0 and 23 years old and after swinging a while I've noticed i have random back pain on the bottom sometimes. It's like a pinching pain that I end up getting from arching my back wayy too much in the follow through. I'm guessing this is because of some bad habit like my weight is transferring but my body is still back I'm not sure . I'm definitely not trying to help lift the ball. Any help would be appreciated thanks.

Couple things I would check

- Make sure the you don't start with an arch in your lower back

- Make sure the weight gets forward and the legs are extending, belt is raising into the followthrough

From some one who's had almost 48 yrs of back pain resulting from injury, I can tell you if it is in fact a Pinching type pain vs an aching pain, I would suggest you go see a back doctor, as you may pinched a nerve back there. Better safe than sorry, also get this cleared up Now, do not let it go, you could wind up suffering for years needlessly.

Also, Mike is very good at what he does, please take his advise.

i also have a back pain issue, and the for me only way to play without back pain is to swing WITHOUT any x factor.

    • Day 12: stole about 10 minutes in the garage, doing my drill with foam balls. 
    • Day 116 12-6 Still working on getting to lead side. Tonight I also tried some skill work with clubface awareness.  Hit foam balls. 
    • To flog this subject even further, if that's even possible, this article from Golf Monthly just appeared today in one of my news feeds. Written by a golf writer in the UK who I never heard of, he's basically saying that there should be only 3-5 rounds from the most recent 20 that should count towards the average and only competitive rounds should count. He claims the erratic scorers would have less of an advantage than they do now. He makes a lot of references to "club golfers" in the UK being the ones who are mostly dissatisfied. https://share.google/qmZZBEoJvOxHxJGil  In my experience with my league where we have golfers with indexes ranging from 5 to 40, looking at the weekly results from the past two years, I can detect no pattern that would substantiate the claim that the current system gives an unfair advantage to either erratic golfers (aren't we all?) or higher handicappers. Apparently though, at least in the UK, this seems to be "a thing."
